Rally Quadcopters plans to sell a standard quadcopter (toy drone) for $45 and a deluxe quadcopter for $65. Rally purchases the s

Andrew [12]

Answer:

Rally must sell 1,080 units of Standard and 720 units of Deluxe

Explanation:

Standard Deluxe Total

Sales price per unit $45 $65

Less: Variable cost ($35) ($45)

Contribution Margin per unit $10 $20

Sales Mix units (A) $3 $2 $5

Contribution margin $30 $40 $70

Weighted average Contribution $14

per unit C= B/A

Appointment of fixed cost between standard and deluxe

Total Fixed cost = 14,700

Break even point = Fixed cost / Weighted average Contribution per unit

= 14,700 / 14

= 1,050

Apportionment of Break even point sales between Standard and deluxe in sales mix ratio (3:2)

Standard = 1,050 * 3/5 = 630

Deluxe = 1,050 * 2/3 = 420

Unit to be sold to get desired profit = Fixed cost + Desired profit / Weighted average Contribution per unit

= (14,700 + 10,500) / 14

= 1,800

Apportionment of Units to be sold to get desired profit between Standard and Deluxe in sales mix ratio (3:2)

Standard = 1,800 * 3/5 = 1,080

Deluxe = 1,800 * 2/5 = 720

To reach target operating income, Rally must sell 1,080 units of Standard and 720 units of Deluxe

Assume the $19,500 Treasury bill, 4% for 15 weeks. Calculate the effective rate of interest.

Svet_ta [14]

The effective interest rate is calculated through the equation,
ieff = (1 + i/r)^r - 1
where ieff is the effective interest, i is the nominal interest, and r is the number of 15 weeks in a year. Every year, there are 52 weeks. Thus, there are 3.467 15-weeks approximately. Substituting this into the equation,
ieff = (1 + 0.04/3.467)^3.467 - 1
ieff = 0.04057
ieff = 4.057%

You see a used sporty car that you would like to own. It costs $9,000 and you would pay 7.2% interest, compounded monthly and fi

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

$24,705.8

Explanation:

To find the answer, we will use the present value of an annuity formula:

PV = A (1 - (1 + I)^-n / i

Where:

PV = Present value of the investment (in thise case, the cost of the car)
A = Value of the annuity (the monthly payments)
i = Interest Rate
n = number of compounding periods

The monthly payments are an annuity: they are periodic, fall under the same interest rate, and have the same value, therefore, if we find the value of the annuity, we will find the value of the first monthly payment at the same time (both things are the same):

Plugging the amounts into the formula we obtain:

9,000 = A ( 1 - (1 + 0.072)^-36 / 0.072

9,000 = A (12.75)

9,000 / 12.75 = A

705.88 = A

Now, to find the full value of the loan, we multiply the annuity value for 36, because that value will be paid 36 times until the loan is completed:

Full value of the loan = 705.88 x 36

= 25,411.68

Finally, to find the loan balance after the first payment, we take the full value of the loan, and substract the value of the annuity from it:

Loan balance after first payment = 25,411.68 - 705.88

= 24,705.8

Ballard Company incurred a total cost of $8,500 to produce 400 units of pulp. Each unit of pulp required six (6) direct labor ho

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

$4,900

Explanation:

Given that,

Total cost at a production level of 400 units = $8,500

Each unit of pulp requires = 6 direct labor hours

Variable cost = $1.50 per direct labor hour

Total variable cost:

= Cost per direct labor hour × Direct labor hours required for each unit × No. of units produced

= $1.50 × 6 × 400

= $3,600

Total cost is sum total of total fixed cost and total variable cost.

Total cost = Total fixed cost + Total variable cost

$8,500 = Total fixed cost + $3,600

$8,500 - $3,600 = Total fixed cost

$4,900 = Total fixed cost

The Swimmers Co.'s Boat's value in use (net present value) is Eur 321,221.

Data and Calculations:

Pre-tax discount rate = 5% p.a., excluding inflation

Inflation rate = 2% p.a.

Inflated discount rate = 7% (5% + 2%)

Salvage value = Eur 20,000
